DSSSL Glossary

This is a collection of short definitions of DSSSL-related terms collected
from people’s contributions or from postings to the
DSSSList mailing list. The current
version is revision 01, dated November 9, 1997.

It is not exhaustive and is not guaranteed to be error-free. Any additions, corrections, or suggestions for improvement should be sent to David Pawson (DPawson@rnib.org.uk).

Glossary entries should have an ID that is “gloss-” prefixed to the term, with any spaces in the term replaced by hyphens, e.g. “gloss-kendot”

You can include more than one glossary entry in a single mail message

Use the “OtherTerm” attribute in <GlossSee> and
<GlossSeeAlso> for other terms you want to reference, even if you
don’t know if there is an entry for that term. If there are any
broken links when the SGML is put together, an
empty entry will be created and the term will be added to the request list.

Graphics should be in TIFF or EPS formats only. Text in graphics should be 10pt Arial wherever possible.
